How do I enter a domain in the panel?
Learn the rules for how a domain address is saved and how they affect the banner and your visitors' consents.
Regardless of the form in which you enter the domain, our system automatically simplifies the address you entered and saves only the host name.
The rule is simple, but it affects which addresses the banner will appear on. Here are the rules this mechanism follows.
How do we tidy up the data in the panel?
| Entered address | Saved domain |
|---|---|
https://yourcompany.com | yourcompany.com |
yourcompany.com/contact?utm=x | yourcompany.com |
YourCompany.com | yourcompany.com, uppercase letters are changed to lowercase |
www.yourcompany.com | yourcompany.com, with no www prefix |
What won't you see in the panel?
- The protocol (
httporhttps) - The
wwwprefix - The path, for example
/contact - The query parameter, for example
?utm=x - The port number
What does this mean?
www.yourcompany.comandyourcompany.comare one (the same) host to us. The banner will appear on both versions of the site.- A visitor's consent status is saved separately for each host. The information about a visitor's consent status, that is the
co_consentcookie, is stored separately for each unique host name. - The status of consent given by a visitor on the main domain isn't automatically carried over to subdomains. To allow the consent status to be passed between subdomains, turn on Consent sharing across the group in the project settings.
